Opposing violence against trans women is unacceptable to the BBC, which, like every part of British media in 2026, believes being able to do violence against trans women is a human right.

So, if you're left wing, your options are to accept that Zionism is racism and fight the likes of ball who both support the genocide and want to crush the left. Or do endless mealy mouthed triangulations and capitulations desperately trying to appease the likes of Ball who'll never be appeased.

The idea the Greens were plausibly ever going to be invited to participate in the next govt by the Labour Party *under any circumstances* is levels of motivated reasoning & self-bullshitting we need to build a new scale to quantify
George Monbiot @georgemonbiot.bsky.social

Let me trv this once more. It was a choice EITHER the Greens adopted a slogan. OR thev could have ioined the next qovt, where they could push for an end to arms sales, sanctions, support for the arrest warrants etc. It was never going to be both. Which one makes a material difference? #GazaGenocide

There are NOT machine-made clothes. If there were, your clothes would be made in the country you live in (where the customers are), or in China (where machines are cheap). They’re made in Bangladesh or India or Indonesia because that’s where the LABOUR is cheap. Your clothes are made by people.
Joyce Carol Oates says: “This is why Al-generated romance novels make perfect sense. Formulaic fiction doesn't need to be written by hand, so to speak; what difference does it make if a machine "writes" it? There are machine-made clothes & there are custom-made clothes. They appeal to
different consumers.“

There is literally no reason to be a landlord and no excuse for it. Literally none. The correct number of private landlords is none. If you are a landlord your property should be taken off you and given to someone who needs a home without compensation. This is a non negotiable socialist position!
